eh? what? its late..

I just noticed it said Smallpox research project??? is this right or wrong??

rhaines · September 10, 2003

Two questions.
1) Why do my projects show up as SmallPox projects and not Cancer ones?

2) I assume that when I sign up an additional PC its WU totals are added the LOC team?

torrent,

sometimes the company behind it "rent out" the grid network to other projects (such as smallpox, anthrax research etc).

You can change your setting s to only do cancer research work units if you like - it will be in your project home page settings.

Even though my reason for doing it is Cancer Research, I tend to leave mine processing whatever units they send me as

a - these tend to be short lived campaigns

b - they bring money into the organisation who run it, and therefore help fund the cost of the cancer research

As long as you sign up on every PC with the same name, then the LOC team will get the points

as said read post...

Well, the peeps in the company who should be building PC's decided that the 25 needed for my project were going to be built y them so guess what I was doing today...
To bring this back to topic, I have installed the client and signed it up for teamlexus on each of the 25 machines (also a couple of servers ), so over the next week or so as I roll each one of these machines out that'll be another 25 machines contributing to both cancer research and teamlexus....

We're going to be replacing all of the machines in the office, I wonder if I could sneak the client onto the ghost image :D
